Without a doubt & thank you.
I almost put my ankle boots on but suddenly at last second decided to switch to the TCXs.
Il never ever ride without full / decent kit on.
They cut my “go to” fave RST Pro ADV jacket & RST jeans off, which I’m choked about, but fortunately managed to get my new boots off.

Best of luck with your recovery. This a genuine nightmare of complete idiots out there.

I recall on the Radio 2 mid morning pop quiz a few years ago, one of the contestants was a motorcycle instructor of 35 years. When asked what the difference between now and then was, they were quite passionate about the current desperate state of driving standards in comparison with 35 years ago.

That's just put paid to me going out on the bike now . I will give it a miss today.
My kit has been getting lighter this year, however your post has reminded me back to full on protection always.

I very much hope you recover fully.

Good luck with your recovery, and well done on wearing proper kit. Still absolutely ste, though, you've clearly got a long and painful road ahead. Do you need anything?

No matter how defensively you ride, you can't do much to mitigate a head on with a car! Hope you heal quick mate.

Horrible situation but at least you’re still here to tell the tale. Sounds like you were lucky with your back hitting the kerb - were you wearing an airbag or standard back protector?

Wishing you all the best an a full recovery mate.

Wow, best wishes on your recovery, you were lucky to survive that.

I've just found out that one of my clients was killed on his motorbike last night, his father called me to tell me, apparently a head on with a car on the wrong side of the road. What do you say to an 87 year old man that just lost his only son? frown

I came on to PH to take my mind off it, and this post appears in 'what's new'. The odds of that.

Wishing you a full and quick recovery. None of us know what's coming when we head out on the bike and just pray it's nothing like this!
